This does not work for files of type *.webloc. They will always be opened by Safari.

Thanks. Worked a treat. And aside from those negative replies above, people should realise that any advice given is open to glitches or occasions where it may not work. I and most others appreciate your effort to respond to our needs.

This is incredible. FINALLY a simple guide getting to the point.

No need for a 3rd party app or anything.

This also works with ALL versions of OS X after 10.4.
INCLUDING, Lion!

Awesome help – who needs the heavy and cumbersome acrobat for viewing pdf’s anyway?

This is exactly the problem I’m looking to solve. Have you had any answers? Why won’t it save the setting?
